I have been sleeping in a grow room filled with hps and MH ballasts and lamps, for seven years.

I got brain cancer now and have been operated ypon.

Ackording to my doctors, the only thing that surely cause brain
cancer is ionising radiation..

My question is: Is the radioation from HPS and MH equipment ionising radiation?


And is a digital ballast not as dangerous in this case?

No it isn't. Ionising radiation comprises ultraviolet (C-UV and X-rays)

there are many cases of brain cancer every year
i think very few of them could be attributed to radiation exposure
cause is often unknown, but maybe genetic risks for some forms
 
Thunder check out The Rick Simpson story they apparently have had good luck with brain cancer just something to give some thought.

If a glioblastoma, definitely pursue the CO approach - either on its own or in conjunction with radiation/chemo, etc. There appears to be a cancer-killing component that particularly affects glioblastomas due to the presence of many endocannabinoid receptor sites in the brain. I have learned much about it due to my son's having a glioblastoma...he has gone the radiation/chemo route and also takes in a lot of cannabis via oil, vaping, edibles, etc. At this juncture, the tumor is shrinking substantially.

heaviest thread I've seen related to marijuana. you're a trap god for sleeping in a tent with your grow for 7 years. Did you live on the same light schedule as the plants or what? I'll pray those CBDs do work on your brain my g

Holy shit, 7 years?? That's a whole new level of watching over the garden! Def a hands on approach to say the least. :)

Best wishes and vibes sent for your recovery!!
